The view from The Window. Looking over the edge, all the way down, can be a vertigo-inducing experience.

Notice the blue dot just right of the path? That's what you'll be looking for along Ron Coleman Trail.
About as tough as it gets along a trail, the climbing segments on Ron Coleman are fairly easy by bouldering standards, maybe a v1. There are plenty of good holds and a chain to help out.

There are panoramic views on offer just before getting to the Window.
You'll get a gorgeous view of the city at the base of the Thunderbird.
Nearly half of the Ron Coleman Trail's distance is spent descending back into Fusselman Canyon, which it follows all the way from North Franklin Peak. From up here, the hills of the Lost Dog area (upper left) don't look so tall.
